The era of hope and change is dead...and it only took six months in office to kill it.
Never has an administration taken office with more inflated expectations of turning Washington around. Never have a media-anointed American Idol and his entourage fallen so fast and hard. In her latest investigative tour de force, New York Times bestselling author Michelle Malkin delivers a powerful, damning, and comprehensive indictment of the culture of corruption that surrounds Team Obama's brazen tax evaders, Wall Street cronies, petty crooks, slum lords, and business-as-usual influence peddlers. In Culture of Corruption, Malkin reveals:
—Why nepotism beneficiaries First Lady Michelle Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are Team Obama's biggest liberal hypocrites—bashing the corporate world and influence-peddling industries from which they and their relatives have benefited mightily
—What secrets the ethics-deficient members of Obama's cabinet—including Hillary Clinton—are trying to hide
—Why the Obama White House has more power-hungry, unaccountable "czars" than any other administration
—How Team Obama's first one hundred days of appointments became a litany of embarrassments as would-be appointee after would-be appointee was exposed as a tax cheat or had to withdraw for other reasons
—How Obama's old ACORN and union cronies have squandered millions of taxpayer dollars and dues money to enrich themselves and expand their power
—How Obama's Wall Street money men and corporate lobbyists are ruining the economy and helping their friends
In Culture of Corruption, Michelle Malkin lays bare the Obama administration's seamy underside that the liberal media would rather keep hidden.

"Very well documented. Highly recommend. We've got problems my friends and this is not River City, it is America. Both sides will benefit from this read. Michelle knows her stuff. As citizens of this great country you owe it to yourself to understand why our country is in the condition it is in. This is not about one person, but many."

" Michelle speaks the truth. I give her book 5 stars only that in my own research believe that her facts are correct. Everybody should read this book and decide if they want a third term of Obama. "
— Sharen Millett, 7/29/2016" I will give it five stars for the amount of detail and the fact that much of what I read has been born out subseequently in the media. Well researched. A little snarky and sarcastic but I can overlook that. Not an enjoyable read because unfortunately this is an indictment on the President and his closest advisors and confidants. "
— Mike, 2/16/2014" I had trouble getting into this book. I need to try reading this book later. I have tried for about 2 weeks. "
— Tracey, 2/8/2014" While I do not believe the current administration is pure, I have faith in their goals for our country. It is indeed sad to see the corruption in politics that seems to be our heritage (I truly thought we were going to have and administration of 12 year-olds when Obama said they were looking for people with no association with lobbyists!) It would be interesting if Michelle would take her microscope to the Bush administration or even the new leaders of the Republican party, perhaps FOX news and Rush as well. The rating of two is reflective of her writing style more than the content. "
— Linda, 2/6/2014" I'll read anything by Michelle Malkin. "
— Nick, 1/24/2014" Kind of a rough read in that it doesn't flow as nicely as others. But Malkin knows her stuff, and outlines the corruption and ineptitude that surround this current administration. It still amazes me that people could not see the writing on the wall in Nov '08. "
— goddess, 1/20/2014" I don't like Obama but this book still sucks! "
— Jason, 12/31/2013" To be honest, I couldn't finish reading this book. I'm certainly no fan of the Obama administration or alot of his cronies. But there were people in this book that I know who were unfairly portrayed. And because I encountered those situations in the early pages, I couldn't trust the rest of the book and stopped reading. "
— Angela, 12/23/2013" The disgusting, nauseating details of Obama's lies, influence-peddling, hypocrisy, and the appointment of others of his ilk to cabinet posts and other high offices. One tries to respect the office of the presidency, but Obama makes it really hard. He has brought dirty Chicago politics, especially election fraud, to the whole nation, and cost every taxpayer many dollars that went into his pockets and those of his friends. Depressing to read, but I wish everyone planning to vote for him would do so. Although his pals the Clintons run a close second, Obama has to be the most corrupt occupant of the White House since LBJ. "
— Carolyn, 12/20/2013" I could only get through a quarter of the book, but not because of any fault on the part of the author. I could only take so much corruption. After picking up this book a myriad of times, I've finally decided that I just don't care to spend anymore time dwelling on Obama. "
— Jeanne, 12/17/2013" Oh, how I wish more people understand the corruption behind Obama's advisors. "
— Mike, 12/14/2013" couldn't finish it all as there were WAY too many characters to keep up with!!! "
— Caroline, 11/14/2013" Glaring insight into the corruption involved in the political machines that our 2 party system is. Book points to corruption by both dem and rep parties, but seemed more anti-corrupt government motivated. "
— Bryan, 10/28/2013" I always knew there was corruption in government, but the level of corruption in our current system is nauseating. The amount of "middle management" not needing Congressiona approval, is not only insane, but costly. Insane amount of nepotsm and corruption. "
— Heycynh, 10/7/2013" Very insightful book. A must read. "
— Monica, 9/3/2013" This book was very dry. Other than that, it is one that everybody should read before November 2012!! "
— Anna, 7/22/2013" Change? Shah. This is the who's who of Obama's administration. It's even worse than you think. "
— Jerry, 6/6/2013" I'm a believer! I don't trust a thing any of the current administration says. They are good with the manipulation of words so they have plausible deniability. Do your own research and then "stand up". "
— Connie, 1/27/2013" Wow! This book is quite the eye opener in regards to the corruption of politics in America today. It makes me wonder if Michelle Malkin were to research and investigate all politicians this intensely, would they all come out looking as bad as Obama & his 'staff' did? "
— Deanna, 10/22/2012" I have done a ton of research and several FOIA requests (yet to be honored) and this book simply prooved to me what I already knew...If a person protest to much against the rich and capitalism, they are likely subverting it to make themselves richer at your expense. "
— Larry, 8/25/2012" Fascinating. Filled with details based on research and a little slow going in spots. "
— Betty, 8/2/2012" Great book, points out a lot of shady characters. Yes the author is quite opinionated, but if even 1/2 of what she says is true...sad commentary on our current administration. "
— Pete, 4/8/2012" Chicago thug politics comes to Washington, just what you'd expect. The Mayor Daley model working on a national scale. "
— Ed, 3/6/2012" I first thought it was way too extreme against Obama but I kept reading and tried to keep an open mind. I don't know if it is factual but it certainly made me think. "
— Sandy, 2/25/2012" So interesting and disheartening at the same time. Obama really is corrupt and likes to surround himself with corrupt people. "
— Dale, 2/22/2012" Troubling......very well documented. Rather depressing to say the least! "
— Anita, 2/4/2012" Hard to keep up with all the names. Not the authors fault. There just seems to be so many questionable ties to the President. "
— Paul, 1/23/2012" This book gives you an item by item list of all the lies and corruption of the Obamas and liberals working for them. Too bad members of the general media don't do a tenth of the research Malkin does for her book. "
— Kelly, 1/7/2012" The information in this well documented book is just overwhelming. It makes you not know who to trust. Just throw them all out and start again. "
— Opa, 7/2/2011" Lots of data but tone was wrong. If you want to attack, fine, but sarcasm isn't the best way to state it. "
